Low turnout in Selangor will favour PN, warn DAP leaders

PETALING JAYA: DAP leaders are warning the party’s grassroots that a “green wave” may dislodge Pakatan Harapan (PH) in Selangor if voter turnout falls sharply below the 79% figure recorded in the state at the 15th general election (GE15) last November.

They say that with an addition of 2.97 million new voters in the state, the racial composition has changed, with 37 of the 56 seats up for grabs now showing a Malay-majority. Of the remaining seats, 13 are Chinese-majority constituencies while the remaining six are mixed seats.

Party insiders said leaders are worried rapid changes in the racial demographics would make it near impossible to reverse a defeat to Perikatan Nasional (PN) in future elections.

One source cited the urban Kota Kemuning seat which now has a Malay majority. Malay voters comprise 42%, while the Chinese make up 33%. Indians comprise 23% while others make up 2%.
